CNC Turned Parts
Chuck turning up to Ø 300 mm on the DMG MORI NLX 2000 — flanges, bushings, gears and complex geometries in all machinable materials. ISO 9001-certified quality from Sierksdorf.
NLX 2000 Chuck Turning
On our DMG MORI NLX 2000 we produce CNC turned parts in classic chuck clamping. The workpiece is clamped in a 3-jaw chuck and can be machined from both sides — ideal for large diameters and compact geometries.
Unlike Swiss-type turning, there is no guide bushing. Instead, we process workpieces up to Ø 300 mm — from one-offs and small batches to automated series production with bar feeder.
Chuck vs. Swiss-Type Turning
Which method suits your part? The difference lies in workpiece guidance and achievable dimensions.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q1What is chuck turning?
In chuck turning, the workpiece is clamped in a 3-jaw chuck and machined. Unlike Swiss-type turning, there is no guide bushing, but diameters up to 300 mm and more are possible.
Q2When to use chuck turning vs. Swiss-type?
Chuck turning is suitable for larger diameters (from approx. Ø 30 mm) and compact geometries like flanges, bushings and gears. Swiss-type turning is ideal for small, slender parts (Ø 3–32 mm) in high quantities.
Q3What materials do you process?
All machinable metals: structural steel, alloy steel, free-cutting steel, stainless steel (304, 316), aluminum, brass, copper, titanium. Plus plastics like POM, PEEK, PA6 and PTFE.
Q4What tolerances are achievable?
On the NLX 2000 we achieve dimensional tolerances from IT6, runout ≤ 0.01 mm and surface finishes to Ra 0.4 µm. For tighter requirements, we grind.
Q5What batch sizes are possible?
From one-offs to large series with 10,000+ pieces per batch. Thanks to bar feeder and automated production, CNC turned parts are economical at any batch size.
Q6How long does production take?
Standard lead time 10–15 working days from order confirmation. Express production from 5 working days available.
Q7Do you offer surface treatment?
Yes — anodizing, zinc plating, nickel plating, hardening, powder coating and passivation via certified partners. Everything from one source.
Q8What does a CNC turned part cost?
The unit price depends on material, complexity, tolerances and batch size. You receive a binding quote within 24 hours.
